Yes, You Can Really Adopt a Puppy That Farted on ‘Bridgerton’s Nicola Coughlan

Who doesn’t love BuzzFeed’s puppy interviews? They all have the same format, and that format is absolutely perfect: Your favorite stars struggle to concentrate on basic interview questions while they’re bombarded with adorable puppies!

The puppy interview for Bridgerton season 3 has dropped, featuring cast members Luke Thompson, Claudia Jessie, Nicola Coughlan, and Luke Newton. But let’s face it: the puppies are the real stars here.

All the interviews are great—one puppy falls asleep on Luke Thompson’s lap!—but Coughlan’s interview is, hands down, the best. First off, she literally cries when the puppies are brought in. That is the correct reaction!

Then, as she’s cooing to a puppy and saying, “I’m going to call you Cutie Face! Like Lovey Dove!” the puppy jumps off her lap to go play. Right before it leaves, it farts audibly into her lapel mic.

Coughlan, being the class act that she is, is a good sport about it. She laughs it off and goes back to playing with the pups. After all, puppies don’t know farts are gross! Besides, as someone who has been farted on (and worse) by lovable dogs, I can confirm that it’s physically impossible to stay mad at them.

My favorite thing about the BuzzFeed puppy interviews, though, is that you can adopt all the animals that are playing with the stars. That little puppy asleep on Thompson’s lap? That could be your companion. The gassy little scamp who won over Coughlan’s heart? Apparently, that puppy needs a home! With good ventilation!

According to BuzzFeed, all the dogs featured in the interview come from North Shore Animal League, a no-kill rescue and adoption organization. Interestingly, neither the video nor the org’s website say which dogs are featured in the interview—perhaps to ward off fans who might hastily adopt a dog simply because its proximity to celebrities. That means it’s impossible to know exactly which puppy in the organization is the little farty butt.

Still, somewhere out there, that puppy is waiting for a forever home. We’re rooting for you, Cutie Face!
